Sequoia Loudoun, aged 14, departed this life on September 15th, 2023, at Tennessee Children\'s Hospital. Born on January 24th, 2009, in Tennessee, to Aubrey and Michael Louden, Sequoia was a spark of light, a beacon of love and kindness, and an inspiration to those who had the privilege of knowing her.

Sequoia was preceded in death by Susan Louden, whose memory she held dear. She leaves behind her parents, Aubrey and Michael Louden, and her sister, Kaylee Louden. She also leaves her best friends, Hayden Lantz and Neytiri Taylor, who will forever remember her vibrant spirit and unwavering friendship.

An artistically gifted and academically driven student, Sequoia was a passionate band member, an avid artist, and a talented writer. She invested her energy into creating, expressing, and inspiring. Her contribution to the Rockwood High School newspapers was a testament to her commitment to her community and her love for writing. Sequoia was also a proud member of the Beta Club, displaying her dedication to academic excellence and personal growth.

In her short but meaningful life, Sequoia touched the hearts of many with her kind, loving, and caring nature. She was a beacon of positivity, reaching out to those around her with empathy and understanding. Her strength, courage, and resilience were admired by all who knew her. Her spirit, her smile, and her boundless love will be remembered forever.

In honor of Sequoia\'s life, a service will be held at a later date. Details will be shared with friends and family when arrangements have been finalized.

Sequoia was a shining star, a beautiful soul whose light was extinguished too soon. But her spirit continues to live on in the hearts of those who loved her. May her life serve as a reminder to us all to live fully, love deeply, and embrace each day with gratitude.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made in Sequoia\'s memory to organizations that support arts education, demonstrating her enduring commitment to her passions.

In closing, we remember Sequoia not for the brevity of her life, but for the depth of her impact. She was a cherished daughter, a loving sister, a loyal friend, an inspiring student, and an irreplaceable part of our lives. Her legacy will continue to inspire and guide us all. Rest in peace, dear Sequoia. You are forever loved, forever missed, and forever in our hearts.
